I just watched a trailer for Top Gear which is coming to History Channel.
History Channel or The History Channel? Their website doesn’t have the word history appearing next to the word channel. Not once!
I love Top Gear, a BBC production featuring three very British guys and many cars I’ve never heard of. I’m not a car nut. The show hooked me because it seemed so real and its hosts so likable.
I didn’t see that same joie de vivre from the Americans. One event set-up seemed very stiff and uncomfortable. The event itself was interesting, but BBC’s version seems more interesting and more emotional.
It’s tough to judge a full series based on a short trailer. It’s the Internet. Everyone’s got opinions!
I’d like it to be a hit.
